Penrith and Eden Museum is housed in the old Robinson's School building, which was established in 1670 for the education of poor girls. The building continued to be used as a school for three hundred years. It now houses Penrith and Eden Museum and Penrith Tourist Information Centre (TIC).
Such a great little museum so informative and it's a very well kept building!
Interesting little museum along with tourist information. Free entry. Had a few worksheets for children to fill in, suitable for different ages which was nice.
Lovely little museum, collection of natural history and social history exhibits. A completed jigsaw puzzle being my favourite. Not sure why this would warrant being curated, 1000 pieces, perhaps it was someone's lifetime achievement, interesting and thought-provoking none the less.
Quite small museum with free entry, but worth a visit!
Very small museum. Nevertheless it was interesting to read articles about Crimean war and about a murderer, don't remember his name though)
